I’m sure that my query has been asked several times before, but I can’t find a forum entry that helps me at the moment.</p>
<p dir="auto">Can you briefly explain to me how I can change the size of the position bodies? In other words, how do I enter it in Custom.css?</p>
<p dir="auto">I would like to adjust the widths of the top_left, top_center and top_middle.<br />
As far as I understand it, I will probably control it somehow via padding, but how exactly does that work?</p>
<p dir="auto">I would appreciate a short answer with an explanation or a link to a tutorial or instructions.</p>

<p dir="auto">you can see their definitions in css/main.css (small sample)</p>
<pre><code class="language-css">.region {
  position: absolute;
}

.region.fullscreen {
  position: absolute;
  inset: calc(-1 * var(--gap-body-top)) calc(-1 * var(--gap-body-right)) calc(-1 * var(--gap-body-bottom)) calc(-1 * var(--gap-body-left));
  pointer-events: none;
}

.region.right {
  right: 0;
  text-align: right;
}
</code></pre>
<p dir="auto">you can change them, by defining the same thing (the selector clause, everything before the {) in custom.css</p>
<p dir="auto">in MM there is a stack of css definitions</p>
<pre><code class="language-text">custom.css on top
module css  (multiple)
main.css
</code></pre>
<p dir="auto">the versions of definitions above another overrides the prior</p>
<pre><code class="language-text">custom.css overrides all
module overrides main
main is the base..
</code></pre>
<p dir="auto">in the developers window you can see where a definition  comes from when u select and element, in the element tab<br />
see this for a starter on developers window elements tab<br />

<p dir="auto">the doc, <a href="https://docs.magicmirror.builders/modules/configuration.html#position" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow ugc">https://docs.magicmirror.builders/modules/configuration.html#position</a><br />
shows the view of the default definitions…</p>
<p dir="auto">note that adding to one means taking away from another…</p>
<p dir="auto">there are lots of settings that affect each other… padding, margin, width , height,<br />
what to do about content that exceeds the boundary, wrap, clip,<br />
alignment</p>
<p dir="auto">easy is a term I would not use for html/css<br />
(I am not a visual designer, and this hurts my head…)<br />
